Pet Lover with 20+ Years Experience

⭐️ Use my promo code to get a $20 off your first booking with me! Code: CAROLA93568 Hi! I’m Carole, a lifelong pet lover and I grew up with dogs and have over 20 years of experience caring for them. I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be attentive during house sittings and visits. As a pet parent myself, I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe and happy while you’re away, so I prioritize clear communication and regular photo updates. I have experience caring for both large and small dogs, including breeds like Labs, Retrievers, Bernese mountain dogs, Huskies and Pomeranian, Daschunds, Bichon frise and I’m also comfortable caring for cats. I also have experience with senior pets and understand they may need extra patience and attention. I prefer caring for pets in their own home because it helps them stay relaxed in a familiar environment. I’m happy to follow their usual routine for feeding, walks, playtime, medication, and rest so things feel as normal as possible. I’m located near Queen’s Park, which is a lovely spot for calm walks and outdoor time. My goal is simple: to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

Carole was really great!! She took amazing care of our puppy and sent us lots of updates and photos. It was Fideo’s first time with a pet sitter since we adopted him, and it went really well! He felt very comfortable with her and was calm and happy when we returned. We would definitely have Carole take care of Fideo again. Thank you Carole! 😊

Carole was awesome! She was very loving to our dog Dakota and was extremely communicative the whole time. She shared photos and updates every day so we always knew our dog was doing well. She stayed at our house and took care of it very well, leaving it in perfect condition. We’d highly recommend trusting Carole with your dog!

I highly recommend her! She took amazing care of my dog, Luna, while staying at my house. She was reliable, respectful of my home, and treated Luna with so much love and attention. It gave me complete peace of mind knowing Luna was comfortable in her own environment and being cared for by someone so kind and trustworthy. When I came home, Luna was happy, relaxed, and clearly well looked after. I truly appreciate the care and dedication she showed. I wouldn’t hesitate to have her look after Luna again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter.

Carole took such great care of my senior blind doggy while we were gone for 7 days. She cuddle our doggy when she saw she was looking for us. She left the kitchen and bathroom clean and threw out the garbage. Thank you Carole 💝

Everything was fine when I booked her, and she came to our house. And she even sent some pictures of my dog to me, how she is playing etc. However, upon arriving in the house, everything was trashed, smelly and dirty. She left paper cup on the table, plastic on the floor, my couch smells like FISH for some f-ing reason. My dog never piss during night time, but somehow, while I was gone she pissed on the couch at 12am as per Carole, that means she either gave her too much water (I notified her of every step she needs to do, and how much she should give to dog) or skipped a walk. Toilet seat had some weird yellow stains, that wouldn’t come off without using detergent (WHAT WAS IT?!). I’ve had a dog seater not so long ago, cost the same, but she respected the place she stayed in, and cleaned up after herself. I will not book her again, extremely disappointed.

Schedule

Since I work remotely and have a flexible schedule, this allows me to plan my day around walks, feeding times, and check-ins so pets get the attention and consistency they need. I’m able to take regular breaks for walks and playtime, and I enjoy spending time with animals throughout the day.

Safety, trust & environment

I want the pet to feel comfortable in their own home, so I would follow their regular schedule for feeding, walking and playing as well

A typical day

Walks, nice long walks in parks or exploring new smells around the neighbourhood is always a good idea. Playing their favourite games like fetch or hide and seek or even just chilling with them and comforting them with scratches and belly rubs
